Ask HN: Why would you ever use C++ for a new project over Rust?
Did you get a chance to check https://slint.dev?

Deno in 2023
Currently, we do it by using binaries through napi-rs so we can bring in a window using the platform native API. And then we do some hack to merge the event loops.
But if Deno supports bringing up a window directly, this means we can just ship wasm instead of native binary for all platform. And also I hope event loop integration will be simplified.
Although we'd also need more API than just showing a window (mouse and keyboard input, accessibility, popup window, system tray, ...)

Slint GUI Toolkit
Rich Text content is not yet implemented. This is tracked in https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/issues/2723
Thanks for reporting the broken link. Fixed in https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/commit/9200480b532f49007d2...

A 2024 Plea for Lean Software
With Slint (https://slint.dev) we're trying to make a lightweight toolkit that doesn't use HTML/CSS. And that you can program either from low level languages such as C++ or Rust. As well as with higher level language such as JavaScript, and we want to extend to python too.

Immediate Mode GUI Programming
I haven't. I was just searching for a GUI library that was Bevy-compatible and slint isn't at the moment: https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/discussions/940
Sorry!

The Linux graphics stack in a nutshell, part 1
You can do that with Slint (https://slint.dev) and its linuxkms backend. No need for a xorg server or wayland compositor, just run the application made with Slint from the init script.

How difficult would it be to make a c++ compiler
Sean Baxter created a front end c++ compiler by himself, using llvm for the back end and the gcc or clang stl. I think it took him a couple of years. https://www.circle-lang.org/. Before this happened I heard a couple of different people claiming that there would never be a totally new compiler as it was too much work.

Toward a TypeScript for C++"
The real Typescript for C++ is Circle.
Just like Typescript to JavaScript, the syntax is an evolution of what already exists, not a completely different syntax.

Circle Evolves C++ [video]
Context: https://github.com/seanbaxter/circle/blob/master/new-circle/...
Note that Circle is not an F/OSS compiler as someone pointed out before. This however doesn't make Circle less relevant, because it is actually a testament to show that C++ could have been much better without the claimed breakage. If Circle does provide a number of desirable features and its compiler can be built by a single person, then why shouldn't the committee do the same?

My (Herb Sutter's) C++ Now 2023 talk is online: “A TypeScript for C++”
From all wannabe C++ replacements candidates, the only language that is really a TypeScript for C++, is Circle.
For whatever reason, Herb Sutter decided to ignore this language on the presentation.
This is the only one with the syntax based on C++, incrementally changing the features via #pragma settings.

Making C++ Safe Without Borrow Checking, Reference Counting, or Tracing GC
The second someone makes a successor language that seamlessly/directly interops with C++ _AND_ has the level of build/IDE tooling that C++/Rust have, I'm on board.
The closest thing right now is Sean Baxter's "Circle" compiler in "Carbon" mode IMO:
https://github.com/seanbaxter/circle/blob/master/new-circle/...
Unfortunately, Circle is closed-source and there's no LSP or other tooling to make the authoring experience nice.
